The Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Harvard University for allegedly withholding admissions data needed to investigate potential racial discrimination in its admissions process. This follows previous attempts by the Trump administration to cut federal funding and restrict international student enrollment at Harvard, both of which were blocked by federal judges. The lawsuit claims Harvard has not complied with requests for specific admissions documents and data related to race and diversity. The DOJ is seeking a federal ruling to compel Harvard’s compliance with these requests under Title VI and federal anti-discrimination laws.
